I don't know any people worth knowing that has a domestic abuse charge. You?

I know a lot of people, good ones, bad ones, and people who fall in between. I also know that most battered women dont call the cops because its a one night in jail thing. Next day they get it worse, and nothing is done about it except they get beat worse. If you want to know some more horrible poo I know that children are beaten/sexually assaulted and have less rights than adults so nothing is done. Thats your legal system and thats how it works, I will not side with anyone till I see her picture and the damage he caused.

I really want to keep Greg on the team if he can stay out of jail. He is a valuable football player. But how can you make any sort of long term commitment with guaranteed money to him? I feel like Greg needs a carrot on a stick to keep him focused and moving forward.

 

Some of the younger guys probably do not remember Fred Lane and Rae Carruth. Jerry remembers, I can promise that.

It also concerns me that Greg is obsessed with money. He talks about money all the time on twitter. He's posting pictures with diamond studded watches and private jets. He hasn't made that much money yet... If money motivates him, that's fine. I just worry if he gets 40mil guaranteed he may lose his motivation.

I'll say here what I said elsewhere since it applies to the topic...

 

Kris Jenkins was known for a 'big fun guy' personality, until a nasty domestic squabble with the mother of his kid occurred - and got publicized - right around the time of the Super Bowl.  Jenkins wasn't the same after that.  When the team later traded him, I remember saying that Jenkins was now gone, but "Big Kid" had been gone for a while already.

 

With that in mind, I find myself wondering if we'll see the 'Kraken' persona again. Even if Hardy were to come out of this unscathed (which sounds like a tall order) I wonder if the experience will change Hardy like it changed Jenkins.

 

I don't know that you could call the person that Jenkins became "more mature".  Terms such as sullen, morose and perhaps a tad bitter seem like better descriptors.  You'd like to hope, if he gets through this, that Hardy comes out of it better than Jenkins did.

 

No way to know what's gonna happen at this point.

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.

      I did, but again we're aware of the practice in college of inflating height/weight as well as what is considered normal and his freshman weight tells a lot. There was a recent Raw Room episode where at one point they were discussing putting on their "big boy weight" when they go to the pros. It's common for guys to have to slap on 20lbs over the summer, but King Dunlap mentioned having to put on 30 and how much of a toll that took on his body. That makes the idea of putting on 50 at the college level even harder to believe. I've got experience with cutting weight and that type of drop sounds just awful... and that's even if doing it healthy and not just turning yourself into a piece of human jerky. Having to add 50? Noooooo thank yoooou. I can understand wanting to take Scourton at face value, but we didn't take Bryce at face value either (and for good reason!). Give the recently posted videos a shot. I watched the one you linked even though I've already seen it, so why not extend the same courtesy? I think you'll find yourself getting more excited about his Purdue tape than you will being irritated by what you believe are false narratives being pushed. 😄
